MY PROCEDURAL WRITING.
ETHAN’S STEP BY STEP GUIDE ON HOW TO DRAW A PERSON.
Hello! Do you want to draw better? Well you’ve come to the right place!
Here is my step-by-step procedure to show you the way!
First, you will need a pencil, a piece of paper and coloured pens/pencils of your choice.
Step one: Head. Draw a U.
Step two: hair. Make whatever kind of hair that you want!
Step three: Face. Give them a face that shows their personality!
Step four: neck. Draw two lines under the chin and then make the end of the neck.
Step five: Torso. Make a sort of shape that is a rectangle, but the top of it is pointy.
Step six: arms. draw some kind of upside down U for the sleeves and then just make the arms go down until it hits the waist.
(sorry I’m drawing digitally so it doesn’t look the best but it’s ok!)
Step seven: the hands. Ok, this can get pretty tricky. just watch closely and try to copy. First, you need to make a palm, so just do another upside down U, then add the fingers!
continue to do that on the other arm (make sure the thumb is the closest finger to the torso).
step eight: Legs.
okay you’ve come this far! Good Job! Now we need to make the legs. To make the left leg is really simple. Just make two lines down (except you need to make the right line apart from the bottom line of the torso).
Then, we need to make the crotch, just make a short line going from the right line to some thin air! like this:
After that, we just need to make the right leg!
Okay! now we can take a look at our guy!
Hmmm… there’s something missing… what’s the word? shoes was it?
Step nine: shoes.
To make the shoes, first we need to add the bottom line to the pants.
Boom!
Now we can make the shoes, for my characters, I like to give them a kind of point at the back of the shoe, like a weird high heel, here’s the steps:
Do the same with the other shoe.
NOW! let’s see what it looks like!
Hmm… It’s still missing something… I know what it needs! COLOUR AND ACCESSORIES!
Step ten: COLOUR AND ACCESSORIES!
This is the final step, and it’s the best step yet! now you can get creative, do whatever you want with him! give him any colour, any accessories! The choice is yours!
And it’s done! I hope you found this helpful! I also hope it looks a lot better on paper than it does on the computer… Once you’re done with your character, you can even give it Their own story! You can give him an awesome backstory, incredible powers, and also LOTS OF ACTION!
My name is Ethan, and I hope you Enjoyed!

MY PLURAL WORK
MY EPIC FORTNITE/MINECRAFT/ROBLOX CROSSOVER STORY THAT TOOK SO LONG TO MAKE.
It was a day like any other…
The parrots were dancing…
The bees were buzzing…
And the creepers were hissing…
Just a normal day for me, Skullboy64 a normal Joe, about to go mining and then, a storm started to brew. Not like any storm I had ever seen. The clouds were kind of purple? Am I going colour blind? I then see a purple force field in the distance and then, someone jumps right next to me, he was tall, he had blonde hair and he didn’t look like any cube head I have ever seen. “Dear god, this place is a nightmare…” he says. “He was holding a weird thing… It reminded me of a crossbow. Only it was black? “Hey um… why is your crossbow black?” I ask “what the- What in the name of love is that??! Your head is a cube?!” he cries “my head is weird?! Your head is weird!” I cry back “and FYI, this is not a crossbow, it’s a gun” he says “what is a gun?” I ask confused “what the- you don’t know what a gun is? Wait a second.. Where am I?!” he asks “I don’t know! But whatever dimension you came from, attracted this storm!” I yell back “wait, storm?” he looks behind him “oh no… WE AREN'T SAFE HERE! WE NEED TO GO!” he says “wait a minute who are you?” I ask “the names Jonesy, Jonesy Fortnite Pro” he says as he picks me up and takes me to a cave “listen we need to figure out how to get out of this mess.. If I could just get back to my home..” jonesy says “wait! I know a safe place! We need to go to my house!” I say “are you crazy?!” he asks “Yep!” I say as I go to my house I then click a button and then we teleport away! We then teleport to hypixel! The best place to play minigames and relax at the hub! It’s awesome! “Where are we now?!” Jonesy asks “welcome to hypixel! We’ll be safe here! We are all the way up in the sky!” I say “okay… but I still want to go home!” Jonesy says back “hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!” we hear a laugh.. We then see another cube head! But, he looked weird… he wasn’t like a regular cube-head…
My name is EJblox2008! He says But you can call me EJ! I was playing a game of piggy when I found out about these other games, fortnite and minecraft.. I decided to go here and compete with you guys! “Pfff, like we would ever fight you-” “I’ll do it!” Jonesy interrupts “what?!” Clearly I am more superior than you guys!” he says “ugh, I cringe so hard to people with cocky attitudes, I’m in!” I say “sweet! Since we are already here, I say we compete in a little bedwars?” EJ says to us “bedwars?” Jonesy asks “BEDWARS!” I scream “LET’S GO!” “but! I am entering another character from roblox!” EJ says. “I would like you to meet, BigBadBJnz! But you can call him BJ!” “hi.” BJ says.
AND SO, BIGBADBJNZ AND EJBLOX2008 AND SKULLBOY64 AND JONESYFNPRO ALL GO INTO THE AMAZING VIDEO GAMES SHOWDOWN! STARTING WITH MINECRAFT BEDWARS!
Bed wars:
You have a bed that you need to defend, if you die you can respawn on your bed but if someone breaks your bed, the next time you die, you are out of the game! You have to protect your bed at all costs and try to destroy other peoples bed to win!
EJ/BJ vs Jonesy vs Skullboy.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
EJ and BJ are on the same team, supporting roblox and skullboy is supporting minecraft and jonesy is supporting fortnite.
“Wait a second. Why does team roblox have 2 people?” I ask “because we need 4 people for this game” EJ says “also me and EJ suck at this” BJ replies “oh that makes sense” Jonesy says.
3.. 2.. 1… GO!!!
The game began, I immediately started to grab all the iron and gold I could get to start buying wool to protect my bed. EJ and BJ were pretty bad, but EJ did know how to play. He says he watches a lot of youTUBE… whatever that is. Jonesy, oh BOY! Jonesy sucked! He had no Idea how to play! I had the upper hand. I started to buy fireballs and so did EJ luckily he missed me and I fireballed him out into the void! “WOO!” I yell. I realized that since Jonesy was so bad, I had the upper hand! I could destroy his bed without him even realizing! Time to strike!
Jonesy’s view:
HOLY MAC’N’CHEESE WHAT DO I DO?!?!? I have no Idea how to play?! I’m not allowed to use my guns, or any of my weapons! I. AM. SCREWED. I then stand around my bed, protecting it at all costs then, I see Skullboy, he had a fireball! He threw at me and I ducked! That’s when I realized… “throwing fireballs… is just like throwing GRENADES!” I say in excitement! “What are grenades?” skullboy asks but I immediately throw a fireball at his face and kill him! “WOO!” I scream while I am distracted though… I see this appear in my eyes:
BED DESTROYED
THIS IS YOUR LAST LIFE.
WHAT?! NO!! EJ DESTROYED MA BED! If I died now, I would lose the challenge! I realized that there was nothing left to defend, so I go after the roblox losers! REVENGE!
Back to skullboy’s view.
My strategy was to hide and wait for people to come and then I attack them! But I don’t need to worry about that for awhile… I see jonesy going for revenge with the robloxer’s funny thing is, they are using the same strategy as me, except BJ is making the bed more protected. Then, EJ ATTACKS! He swings his sword and knocks Jonesy off the map! But.. It should say that he lost… why hasn’t he lost…
Jonesy view:
I was hanging by the edge of the map. I was so scared. “(pant pant) oh god… I need to get out of this!” I say as I dig into the map. I then dig right underneath the roblox bed....
BOOM! THE BED IS DESTROYED! I then kick BJ off the map!
BigBadBJnz DIED.
KILLED BY JonesyFNpro.
I then went over to EJ but then..
BOOM! I got hit with a fireball… and so did EJ…
JonseyFNpro DIED.
KILLED BY SkullBoy64.
EJblox2008 DIED.
KILLED BY SkullBoy64.
“WOOO!!! I WON!” skullboy says happily! Since BJ was the first to die… he lost the challenge..
SkullBoy64 | 1st WON! |
EJblox2008 | 2nd |
JonesyFNpro | 3rd |
BigBadBJnz | 4th LOST! |
EJ VIEW.
While Skullboy was boasting with his bedwars trophy, I was comforting BJ. “I don’t get it… I thought I could at least make it to the second round…” BJ whined. “Don’t worry, I will make sure that he pays!” I say back to him “thanks..” he says as he poofs out of thin air.
(challenging music)
WELCOME! TO THE NEXT CHALLENGE! THIS TIME WE ARE GOING TO ROBLOX!
Just then a portal opens up.
STEP INSIDE THE PORTAL!
Jonesy, Skullboy, and EJ all go in the portal.
WELCOME TO ROBLOX! THE GAME OF ALL GAMES! WE ARE GOING TO ROBLOX MAD CITY! WE WILL EXPLAIN THE REST LATER, FOR NOW, WE ARE GOING TO AN APARTMENT, WHERE YOU CAN REST!
The narrator says.
“I am pretty tired” EJ says “I agree” Skullboy replies “PFFF! Who needs sleep?” Jonesy says in an annoying cocky voice.
The next day…
For this challenge, it is to escape the warden! One player will be the warden and two people will be the prisoner, the prisoners have to escape the prison and kill the warden, when two players remain, they will get superpowers, and will have a battle to the death!
LEADERBOARD:
EJblox2008 | WARDEN |
SkullBoy64 | PRISONER |
JonesyFNpro | PRISONER |
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
“ok this is bad… I have no idea how to play!” Skullboy says. “You’re right.. If EJ was a prisoner, he would know exactly how to escape!” Jonesy replies “OI!” shouts EJ “I hope you guys are on your best behavior!” “grrr…. Yes sir!” Jonesy says in a sarcastic voice. “You know, I feel bad for you! So I’ll tell you this, this game is a gun game! You can shoot with guns! That is if you escape the prison!” EJ laughs. *grumble* goes EJ’s stomach “oh no… I KNEW TACO BLOX WAS A BAD IDEA!” he shouts “Okay, I’m going to the bathroom. I’m pretty sure I can leave you guys here! After all, you have no idea how to play! Hahahahaha!” he laughs as he runs away.
“Wow… how anticlimactic… he runs away so we can have time to escape… IT’S LIKE THE NARRATOR IS TRYING TO SAVE TIME ON THIS STORY!” SkullBoy shouts “dude, I found a rope in the trash!” Jonesy calls out. “Wow… this seems really rushed..” Skullboy continues “DUDE WILL YA SHUT UP ABOUT THE LAZY WRITING AND COME HERE?!” he shouts as he starts to climb up the ladder into the vents. They then escape the prison!
UPDATE:
EJblox2008 | Warden |
SkullBoy64 | Criminal |
JonesyFNpro | Criminal |
Jonesy and SkullBoy RUSH to the criminal base and load up on ammo and weapons and protection. “Okay… we are all set to take down the warden… then we have to fight each other…” SkullBoy says “you know what? I never really got my revenge on EJ after what he did last round… I want to have a big fight with him… okay well… I guess it’s survival of the fittest…” Joensy says as he grabs a grenade and throws it at SkullBoy.
BOOM!
SkullBoy64 DIED
SkullBoy64 blew up.
“What the- I didn’t know that you could do that?”
EJ says confused.
UPDATE:
EJblox2008 | SUPERHERO |
JonesyFNpro | SUPERVILLAN |
Skullboy64 | DEAD |
Just then, EJ started to light up with electricity, and then, HE BECAME A SUPERHERO!
Jonesy started to glow purple, then he became a SUPERVILLAN!
They then started to fly up into the air! It was time for the showdown! “Why do we even have to fight? We are going into the finals no matter what.” asked Jonesy “because you get an awesome trophy and some robux (which I need)” EJ says as he throws an electric ball at Jonesy. Jonesy turns into smoke and the electricity goes right through him. They then use their super speed and go crashing into each other! They then start flying into space, while beating each other up! They then crash onto a cargo plane and start having an epic plane fight! The fight was intense.. They throw energy balls back and forth, they get knocked out of the plane and fly back on it! It was so epic! But then… EJ ran out of energy fuel… and so… Jonesy knocked him off the plane…
EJblox2008 DIED.
KILLED BY JonesyFNpro.
The game was over…
LEADERBOARD:
JonesyFNpro | 1st WON! |
EJblox2008 | 2nd |
SkullBoy64 | 3rd LOST! |
Skullboy view
“I can’t believe I lost!” I whine “wait a second… what even was the prize?” I ask
THE PRIZE IS MORE PEOPLE IN YOUR GAME!
(ALSO YOU GET V-BUCKS).
The narrator says.
“Oh… I don’t actually care then.. More people means less diamonds and V-bucks… What do I even do with V-bucks?! I’m actually glad that I lost!” I say as I poof into thin air.
AND NOW JONESY AND EJ ARE GOING INTO THE FINALS! THIS TIME THEY WILL BE TRYING TO GET THE FORTNITE BATTLE ROYAL AGAINST A BUNCH OF BOTS! THE GAME COULD TAKE FOREVER IF BOTH OF YOU LOSE. WHEN YOU BOTH LOSE, YOU HAVE TO RESTART!!
The next day…
LEADERBOARD:
JonesyFNpro | VS | EJblox2008 |
LET THE FINAL GAMES…. BEGIN!
EJ view:
I run with a gun in my hand, ready to attack anybody who gets in my way.. If Skullboy were here, he would be dead immediately!
I see some bots, so I shoot my gun at them (if only I had a good aim).
Jonesy View:
Okay, this is easy! I am known as the Fortnite Pro! I’ve gotten battle royals before and I can get it again! I kill bots that get in my way, I loot all the chests that I can find, I destroy everything! I don’t even have to worry about the storm, I’ll just have to go to the middle of the map! That will be my territory!
EJ view:
I saw the storm, I wasn’t even close to the centre of the map! I needed to start running! For my safety! I keep missing the people that I go to kill! Grrrr!
Jonesy view:
Okay this is it! I have my game plan! I will go to the sky! With all my materials that I have, I’ll be able to make a staircase up in the air when I’m in the centre of the map! EJ won’t see it coming when I shoot him from the skies!
As soon as I get to the centre of the map, I start to climb, I climb into the air and kill all the bots from below!
EJ view:
I ran from the storm, I tried my best to get away, I then saw a tower… It looked like Jonesy was making it! What was he trying to do? I had to be one step ahead of him, so I quickly grabbed some wood and just grasped my elbow on the storm, now the storm was closer than ever before! I went over to a building behind the tower that Jonesy made and started to build up to him! By the time I got to him he had no Idea where I was… I just had to shoot him! I aim and…
Jonesy view:
BANG! All I hear is a loud BANG! I turn around to see EJ! He tried to sneak attack me but he missed me! I shoot him and he takes some serious damage! He starts to build up higher and higher! So I build with him, trying to kill him!
EJ view:
GOD HOW COULD I MISS?!?!?! I was doing so well! Just keep building EJ! Just keep building! I then start taking damage for some reason… I soon find out why… I WAS IN THE STORM! I was on the verge of dying! I had to kill Jonesy before I died! He started shooting at me,a and I kept missing him out of severe pain! I got a few hits and now I was more scared than ever! I then fire one last bullet while I was at 1 hp…
BANG! BOOM! I died… and so did Jonesy…
JonesyFNpro DIED
KILLED BY EJblox2008
EJblox2008 DIED
KILLED BY THE STORM.
I had no Idea who won… I was scared to find out… The narrator was waiting for us to prepare for the answer while BJ and Skullboy watched us… along with a few roblox people, fortnite people, and minecraft people..
“Okay… now… somebody died first by a split microsecond… and now I will tell you who died first…” the narrator says… I was looking at the narrator with a scared look on my face and Jonesy looked at him with a grin..
“And the winner is... EJblox2008!” the narrator says “WHAT!?!?” Jonesy screams “YEEEESSS!!!!” I scream.
LEADERBOARD:
EJblox2008 | 1st WON! |
JonesyFNpro | 2nd LOST! |
“Lucky shoot! I just let you win!” Jonesy says in a salty voice. I then go over to Skullboy64. “Hey dude! Awesome job! I’m so glad that Jonesy lost!” Skullboy says “same! Hey… I know it doesn’t matter to you but I’m giving you some V-bucks.” I say as I give him the V-bucks “well… thanks but… I don’t know what to do with them” Skullboy says “dude… you can trade them in for a house made of netherite and diamonds” I whisper to him “(GASP)! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!” Skullboy screams!
And so… EJ and BJ enjoyed their new friends on roblox, SkullBoy buys the netherite and diamond house, and Jonesy cried himself to sleep for the next 5 months… so kids, it doesn’t matter if Fortnite is better or if Minecraft is better because… WE ALL KNOW ROBLOX IS THE TRUE KING!
THE END.
(we are not doing a part 2!)
